Chapter 92 – Miles

I had been called to the main meeting room, and I had no clue why. This would likely not be good. Kaia had been avoiding me since the awkward interaction with her father, and I had no ideal why. So, I had done all I could to get as many therapy sessions done each day to keep myself busy. I was not used to rejection, and needless to say, I did not like it. Once I was done here, and in my role of Alpha, I would come back here, and I would show her what she had missed out on. She would come to regret her choice, I would ensure of that.

No woman turned me down. I paced the floor of the room for the tenth time since arriving. I hated being kept waiting, yet these fuckers here seemed to like doing exactly that. I was sick of the familiar walls here now. Sick of the people and the fact that they had become accustomed to me. Though, the fact I had allowed my anger to become hidden meant they did not fear me the same, so I did not gain the same thrill from them all. So, I gained little enjoyment from being here. I wanted to leave now. Well, in truth, I wanted to leave the moment I arrived, but that was never going to happen. But, now, my father could not say I had not done as he had asked of me. I had done exactly as asked.

I just hoped there were no more requirements expected of me before they were willing to consider my position as Alpha. I was 24, and more than ready to become Alpha. So many upcoming Alphas have taken their positions by this age, and I think my father was just unwilling to surrender his position. He says I like the power being Alpha brings me, and that I gain a thrill from it,

but in truth, I believe he adores the power being Alpha brings him, which is why he is so reluctant to let his title go. That is why he is holding back on handing me the title I was born into.

But, he would soon have to make a decision or others would be asking questions. I had heard nothing more from Ellis since he had called me in my early days here, to wish me all the best with my treatment, and to tell me he had every faith in my ability to do well in completing the treatment. And, of course, to inform me of his Alpha training. Why would my brother want me to successfully complete my treatment if he had the opportunity to become Alpha? He would want the role as Alpha, like any sane man would, given an opportunity, of that I am sure of!

I would be interested to know how his training went and if he was strong enough to pass it. I know he is strong. He is of Alpha blood, being my father’s son, but I don’t believe he is as strong as me. He enjoyed training, but never pushed himself like I had. I doubted he was capable of the things expected of young Alphas in their formal Alpha training. I truly believed he would fail, and then, where would that leave my father? With no choice but to go with the rightful path given to him by nature. Me.

“Ah Miles, you are here.” Alpha Aaron walked into the room, taking me by surprise. What was he here for? I have been asked here by the treatment team, yet he is not a part of the treatment staff. I was instantly on edge.

“Yes, Alpha. Is everything okay?” I asked, instantly in defensive mode.

An experienced Alpha, he must have picked up on my feelings, as he looked at me with a smile. “No need to be feeling on edge or defensive, Miles. Your parents are here to take you home.

Your treatment is complete.”

I took in his words. I was done? Nothing had been mentioned about this to me, yet my parents were here to take me home?! My heart was racing in anticipation.

“I am done?!” I asked, a smile emerging on my face.

“That you are son. The additional therapy sessions you were requesting each day meant you completed the treatment a lot quicker than usual.” He told me, as my Mum and Dad rushed into the room with Kaia by their side, dressed smartly in a simple black shift dress. Her long blond hair pulled back into a high pony–tail, allowing all her delicate features to be on display. Her lips were highlighted in a deep red lipstick, only drawing my attention to them even further.

Plump and full, I wanted nothing more than to be able to pull her to me and have my lips upon hers. Kiss her so passionately I messed up that neatly placed lipstick…

I found myself smiling slightly at the mere thought of Kaia and kissing her. Fuck, I wanted this girl. “Well, Mr and Mrs Davenport, Miles has ensured he completed the treatment as swiftly as he could, likely in a rush to return home to you. But, we are happy that he has done everything we expected of him. We are happy to discharge him from our care, but that does not mean he cannot contact us for out–reach care. If he needs advice or support, he is more than welcome to reach out to one of the team for help.” Kaia says with a beautiful smile towards my parents.

I saw my Mum smile back. “Thank you so much, we thought he was a lost cause.” And I felt like dying of embarrassment at her words. Nothing like humiliating your own child and making me

sound like a fucking monster! This is a woman I want to be with, and my mother is making me sound horrendous!

“Oh, no, you should never think that. Nobody is a lost cause. Miles has done well. He may have days when he struggles, but if he reaches out, we should be able to help him, so long as he remembers the things we have taught him.” Kaia said with a smile in my direction and I felt my heart flutter from her gaze alone.

What the fuck is happening to me? I do not get all soppy eyed over a woman?! I am the sort of guy who fucks–em and leaves- em. Not willing to get into drama with them. All far too much hassle for my liking, yet this woman seems to have my attention, and I have not been able to stop thinking about her since I met her…

“Well, you should say thank you, Miles, and we will get going, we have things we need to do.” My Dad says bluntly, already acting like having to come here to collect me was an inconvenience, before he looked to Kaia and Alpha Aaron. “Thank you to your both, and all your staff.”

I looked to Kaia, a smile upon my face. “Thanks for everything.” I tried to remain casual, though I desperately wanted to give her a hug. Just to be able to hug her. Touch her. Take in her scent…

“No problem. Good luck with everything.” She said, before turning and walking away, like I didn’t even matter. She didn’t even seem to care that I was leaving. Had I imagined there was a connection between us?

“Here is your support pack.” Alpha Aaron said, handing me a small bundle. “All your treatment papers are in there. Along with the treatment plans used, so you can utilize them if needed. As

well as contact details for staff if you need the out–reach support once you are home. Good luck Miles.”

I nodded in his direction with a smile, as I followed my Mum and Dad from the room, my Dad already marching his way through. the center toward the parking area. He was obviously in a hurry to get away. “Right Miles, we have a lot to arrange when we get home.” He says coldly.

“Oh, so no well done, son. We are proud of you?” I asked sarcastically, a little irritated that neither one of them seemed bothered that I had done the treatment as they had asked of me, with no issues and quicker than expected too, because I had asked for more treatment each day.

“Why would we be proud? Perhaps if you weren’t such a difficult child you wouldn’t have needed it.” Dad said as he got into the driver’s seat of his car with a snarl, telling me he was far from impressed with the whole thing. So, evidently, this was not enough for them either.

“Mum?” I tried with her, but she shrugged.

“I am not sure what you want me to say, Miles. Your Dad has just had to see another Alpha there, show weakness to him, with his son and his apparent heir attending treatment. It doesn’t reflect well on us as a pack. So, why would he be proud? Think of it in that regard. I am afraid it isn’t all about you, and how you feel. You may feel you have done well doing some therapy, but in truth, through your actions you have let your pack down, massively.”

My mother’s words Hit me hard. Who the hell did she think she was talking to?! I feel my anger racing to the surface, but I know if I kick off now, I will be carted straight back into the treatment

center, so I push it straight back, and take a deep breath, climbing into the car, sitting behind my Dad, not saying a word, seething in anger.

“Now you have done that, I do not expect to see your attitude and anger being an issue, Miles. Do you understand?” My Dad said with authority, evidently wanting to show me who was boss. I clenched my fists in fury, as he continued. “And now, we will begin the next step of your reprisal. You will replace your chosen mate. You will do a tour of all the packs. Until we replace a suitable chosen mate for you.”

His words are cold and to the point, but they fill me with dread. I am not going to get a say on this, and I know it. Because if I refuse, I am likely to lose my title. The only other option would be to challenge my father for his title…
